Nb3Sb(PO4)6 crystallizes in the monoclinic Pc space group. The structure is three-dimensional. there are three inequivalent Nb5+ sites. In the first Nb5+ site, Nb5+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form NbO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Nb–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.03 Å. In the second Nb5+ site, Nb5+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form NbO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Nb–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.01 Å. In the third Nb5+ site, Nb5+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form NbO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Nb–O bond distances ranging from 1.97–2.04 Å. Sb3+ is bonded to six O2- atoms to form SbO6 octahedra that share corners with six PO4 tetrahedra. There are a spread of Sb–O bond distances ranging from 2.19–2.29 Å. There are six inequivalent P5+ sites. In the first P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one SbO6 octahedra and corners with three NbO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 18–37°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.51–1.56 Å. In the second P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one SbO6 octahedra and corners with three NbO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 20–26°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.50–1.56 Å. In the third P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one SbO6 octahedra and corners with three NbO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 7–41°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.51–1.57 Å. In the fourth P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one SbO6 octahedra and corners with three NbO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 11–34°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.51–1.56 Å. In the fifth P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one SbO6 octahedra and corners with three NbO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 10–37°. There are a spread of P–O bond distances ranging from 1.51–1.57 Å. In the sixth P5+ site, P5+ is bonded to four O2- atoms to form PO4 tetrahedra that share a cornercorner with one SbO6 octahedra and corners with three NbO6 octahedra. The corner-sharing octahedra tilt angles range from 10–31°. There is one shorter (1.50 Å) and three longer (1.56 Å) P–O bond length. There are twenty-four inequivalent O2- sites. In the first O2- site, O2- is bonded in a bent 150 degrees geometry to one Nb5+ and one P5+ atom.
